Everest needed to score 88 for victory which would guarantee them a place in the semifinals were 63 -6 in 8 overs when play was halted due to bad light. Surat and Mohan Ramdeen made 19 apiece; Steven Black picked up 4-16 and Lanson La Rose 2-25.
Meanwhile, members of the Everest team later told Kaieteur Sport that they will lodge a protest to the GCA since 7 overs were still to be bowled with 14 minutes remaining in the day’s play, and the fielding team (Police) was wasting time.
Scores: Police (191 and 165, ECC 269 and -63-6).
